check the differences in companies bike & mine & rohits bike.

i noticed this only when i saw the HD bikes.even our bikes were the same when bought.all these geniune harley spares cost a fortune.
so it just doesnt end with the purchase of a bike.
also we have the screamer eagle exhaust which really scream alot
the company exhaust are very meladious.

I gotta disagree with you on onething...FXDL (Low rider) doesnt have the chrome front forks and yours has , also FXDL is the only bike where they make that mag wheels which kinda sucks compared to the chrome laced wheels but hey its a personal preference (dont pin my ear to the wall on this)

Cant wait for that European big boy to launch in india soon...BMW MOTORRAD!!

I'm posting the pic of my 09 FXDC. I purchased it as stock from Dallas HD and yes a few months later and few thousand miles on it i've customized it to an extent. I still havent finished it fully customizing it. Trying to make it one of a kind...
I'm posting the pic of my bike for all the HD lovers and just how you can customize it.

My wallet is getting lighter day by day for doing this but hey in the end when I feel there is no bike like mine then all the pain/money is vanished

I still got few mods to be done like
Custom Paint work
Custom wheels
A big bore kit (may be a 103" or 110") depends on the money that i'll be left with.

I'll upload a few now and will upload some more again

[shrini78]

The mods that I've done so far on my cycle...
Chrome 5 3/4" headlamp
Chrome swingarm
Chrome rear shocks
Chrome front end
Chrome tach
Chrome tank panel (lower half)
Chrome inner primary cover
Chrome rotors (front and back)
Chrome calipers (front and back)
Chrome battery box with willie.G.Skull
Chrome cylinder base
Chrome lifter block
Chrome master cylinder kit
Chrome front lever
Front Spoiler with matching insert
Chrome passenger footpeg with willie G.Skull

I might have forgotten something but some more pics to follow

Hey thanks mod for posting my pics
As i mentioned earlier some more pics of my cycle...After this will only post pic of my cycle once I'm done with custom paint job and custom wheel job...

hey why not screamer eagle exhausts yet?we both share the same headlamps.

i realise & understand that these spares cost you a fortune.

cautious warning:smoking of cigarette is injurious to health

one thing i like about the US version harley is the indicators are always on.i doubt that is going to happen with the indian lot.

I dont have a screaming eagle exhaust bcoz of the following:
My motor is 96" and the to change the exhaust from the stock to SE slip on or any other exhaust you need to change your air filter to stage I.

This is the basic package where you go for a stage I air filter (139$) or a (SE heavy breather-249$) coupled with SE slip on (249$) or if you want to change the whole exhaust you are looking at (500$ give or take) and you need to have a power commander/dyno jet bcoz you need to remap the fuel system coz you are going for a different exhaust/air filter...

The whole process would take you around 1500$ including parts & labor...and i'm saving money on it
